Walla Walla, WA
Contracted
Walla Walla Community Hospice
Mid Level
Step into a rewarding, purpose-driven role as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Long-Term Care, and bring your compassion, skill, and dedication to residents who rely on steady, thoughtful care every day. This contract places you at the heart of a dynamic care team where your practical expertise translates directly into comfort, safety, and improved quality of life for elders and adults with complex needs. You’ll partner with RNs, therapists, social workers, and family members to implement care plans, monitor changes in condition, administer medications, and support daily activities with dignity and respect. Your keen assessment abilities, meticulous documentation, and proactive communication will help anticipate needs, prevent complications, and create a stable, healing environment. On this multi-week assignment starting 02/02/2026, you’ll enjoy a guaranteed 40 hours per week and a competitive pay range of $1,616 to $1,733 per week, reflecting your experience and the shifts you choose. This is more than a job—it’s a career moment to grow your clinical confidence while making a meaningful difference in people’s lives. Washington’s distinctive balance of community and care provides a backdrop for both professional excellence and personal fulfillment, where every shift is an opportunity to learn and lead.

Washington’s natural beauty and regional character add richness to your professional journey. Washington’s landscapes—from the verdant valleys to the rolling hills of the Palouse, the sunlit vistas of the Yakima and Skagit country, to the historic towns dotting the riverways—offer restorative places to explore after shifts. In this vacancy, you’ll be part of a community in Walla Walla that blends small-town hospitality with a robust care network, where wine country charm, outdoor recreation, and cultural offerings create a well-rounded lifestyle. For those who welcome variety, the role also opens access to opportunities across other locations in the U.S., allowing you to broaden your clinical exposure while staying aligned with your specialty and career goals. This combination of location benefits—steady, supportive work in a close-knit LTC setting, plus the potential to experience multiple communities—enhances your growth trajectory and daily work-life balance.

Role specifics and benefits are designed to empower you to excel. Your core responsibilities include performing accurate medication administration under physician orders, monitoring vital signs, assessing patient status, coordinating care with interdisciplinary teammates, and contributing to individualized care plans. You’ll assist with activities of daily living, mobility support, and restorative therapies to promote independence and reduce risk of falls. Documentation is precise and timely, ensuring continuity of care and regulatory compliance. You’ll engage with residents and families to provide education, clear communication, and compassionate reassurance during transitions. The role also offers professional growth avenues: pursue certifications in geriatric care, wound care, or palliative principles; take on mentorship opportunities for new staff; and explore leadership paths within the LTC setting as you gain experience. The package emphasizes a competitive benefits structure, including a sign-on or performance bonus, housing assistance, and extension opportunities to keep you connected to the same care teams if you choose. You’ll receive comprehensive travel support, with 24/7 assistance from our dedicated team while you’re deployed, plus onboarding and ongoing clinical guidance to ensure you feel supported from day one through the entire assignment.

The company values you as a professional with a meaningful voice in patient care. We’re committed to empowering our nursing staff, fostering a culture of learning, recognition, and advancement. You’ll join a network that prioritizes your career development and well-being, offering mentoring, access to continuing education credits, and pathways to take on increased responsibility in a supportive environment. Our teams celebrate collaborative leadership, transparent feedback, and a workplace where every professional contribution is valued and leveraged to improve outcomes for residents and families alike.
